Studio Part One

10/13/2013

1 Comment

 
Here is part of my redesigned studio. I've been working on it for a long time. It's an arrangement of things I've acquired over the years and as close to a perfect space as I’ve ever had.  I'm loving it!  

My computer/sketch area below is filled with props that inspire me, gifts that friends have given and things that make me happy.  A combination that makes creating easier and more enjoyable.  The paper file holds canvas, charcoal paper, art in progress, and sketch pads.  The other cabinet is storage for art supplies, paint mostly, and some office supplies, and of course in front is my oversized work desk.  I'm getting close to having a place for everything and everything in its place!

A huge clock to keep me on schedule, my nickname, and a shadow box collection of camels     ( for Humphrey's First Christmas) that friends have given me.

Paint storage adds color as well as being practical.  The old watchmaker's cabinet holds reference, sketches and sketch books.

This is a silly sculpture I first saw some years ago when when I was in New Orleans for Mardi Gras.  His name is Elmer the Tooth Fairy and he just made me laugh!  I was sorry I hadn't purchased him from that quaint shop in the French Quarter.  I finally tracked him down online and now he stands on a pair of turn of the century books under a glass dome.  At least he can't fly away!

Next entry I'll show my painting area.

Wow! It is beautiful, creative, personal, with antique touches and yet open and light so you can work and add color! I love it. You are so amazing!
